I think your graphic card or something just might not be well supported in linux. Can't say since I don't know your computer, but older nvidia cards are the most problematic because nvdia doesn't open source the driver and dropped support for older cards.

I doubt you'll give it another try since windows works well enough for you, which is fair enough. Some systems just don't play well with linux. But for anyone else having these problems:

The cutscene problem can be fixed by using proton-ge. It is a problem with the normal proton not being allowed to support some video codecs.

protondb has suggested settings for most games. Or you can just search for "steam deck" + whatever game you want to run to check for any compatability problems.
